I think these lights look great, but yeah way to much work to get
the suckers to fit.... They had to modify the grille and everything.
If the grille didnt have to be modified i might even attempt it, but i
guess ill keep looking for a replacement front light.. Any ideas??

Depends how much work you're up for. You could install, dare I say it, BMW mini headlights.

I agree with Poeee Yucky....

But i do have to give him 5 star's for effort....

To put so much effort into something so bad.. you have to be dedicated.

The BMW ones look better than the other one on top.. But the VW lights
still look better then both of them, but still to much work, and the BMW
lights wont be any good in a round nose......
